Pure Data (Pd) is a universal, Open Source software environment for real-time generation and processing of audio, graphics, video and sensor data. It’s a visual programming language which allows to program in an easy and intuitive way, and is therefore widespread in the artistic community.

OpenSSH 5.7 has just been released. OpenSSH is a 100% complete SSH protocol version 1.3, 1.5 and 2.0 implementation and includes sftp client and server support.

Changes since OpenSSH 5.6

Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH) and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys.Only the mandatory sections of RFC5656 are implemented, specifically the three REQUIRED curves nistp256, nistp384 and nistp521 and only ECDH and ECDSA. Point compression (optional in RFC5656) is NOT implemented.Certificate host and user keys using the new ECDSA key types are supported - an ECDSA key may be certified, and an ECDSA key may act as a CA to sign certificates.ECDH in a 256 bit curve field is the preferred key agreement algorithm when both the client and server support it. ECDSA host keys are preferred when learning a host’s keys for the first time, or can be learned using ssh-keyscan(1).

scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts are transferred through the local host. Without this option the data is copied directly between the two remote hosts.

As I wanted to display a tail of my remote’s machine syslog, which is running inside a screen, I modified the call to gnome-terminal accordingly:gnome-terminal --window-with-profile=DesktopConsole -e 'ssh -t USERNAME@ssh.example.com "screen -rD LOGS"'

If you leave out the „-t” in the call to ssh, screen will provide you with a „Must be connected to a terminal.” error message. ;)

Answer the questions asked by the script in which you will need to know the full configuration file path of your web server(e.g. /etc/apache/httpd.conf), and the name of your domain for which you are setting up awstats( full-domain-name in this article).

While running the script it will complain that it is not being run from the default location (/usr/local/awstats).

Answer yes to the prompt to run from the non-standard location as the official Debian package of awstats places
the script in /usr/share/doc/awstats/examples/ which is the Debian way.(See the original for detailed script output)
After the script exits, you should set up an alias for awstats-icons in httpd.conf. Inserted it in the Aliases section.

The awstats_configure.pl script adds it in the end of httpd.conf - comment/remove it and copy the code from the examples to the Apache config dir:

Edit the awstats’ domain configuration file you just created /etc/awstats/awstats.full-domain-name.conf to have LogFormat=1. Default „LogFormat=4” does not show Browsers, OS, keywords, etc. Do make sure that the parameter SiteDomain has a value of the domain tomonitor. Generate stats the first time by using the following command.
